Republicans controlled all branches of US government when they had the surplus, and instead of being truly conservative, they spent it - saying "deficits don't matter." The record for "conservative" politicians is red ink, spend and borrow, empty the treasury on unpaid wars.
Letting them dictate the terms now would be a bigger mistake than the first time around. That lesson has been well learned.
This is where democracy fails. It's incredible that politicians are willing to play chicken with the economic wellbeing of the country they are supposed to serve in order to appease their special interest groups so that they have a chance of getting re-elected.
The answers are so clear, but no one wants to be seen to be giving in.
The republican party has just gone completely nuts in the last few years.
Unbelievable!
